June 2013 Sleevers! "The List"



Recommended Posts

I'm still 10 days till my surgery (6/20)' date=' but I plan to rock it! To make sure I look cool post-op, I have cool shot glasses for my liquids. You know the standard red plastic cup they sell in the paper plate section of the store? They now have those in shot glass size. At BevMo I found them in a non-disposable hard plastic. So I got a regular sized ones and shot glass size. Nothing wrong with a little party atmosphere![/quote']

Haha dude I like your STYLE!!! That is soooo something I would do! Hahahhaa Keep that party atmosphere goin! Thats what I like to hear! He he Might need to use that shot glass idea.

Almond milk can be found in most every grocery store (I haven't NOT seen it yet, and I shop at Wal-Mart, Giant, food Lion, etc.). I like the "Silk" brand - go check out the dairy case where cow's milk is sold (I buy that too!) and you'll find it :).

6/12 i had my pre-op appt w/the dr. went over everything. on day 7 of the pre-op diet. my blood pressure was 125/71!!! that is the lowest i have ever seen it. i was nervous going in, now i think it has really started to sink in. i am calming down for now. i made it through vacation on my pre-op diet. that was a crash course! now my husband is starting to get nervous. he looked at me awhile ago and said "wait a min, next week....like 6 days....." i just nodded and said thats right. poor thing. i am on the home stretch!!! surgery the 18th.

I pt my liquids in a wine glass whenever I am with friends who are having a cocktail. I even feel myself get more in a relaxed mood as if I really was having alcohol.

Hey guys! For some reason I no longer have the option to Edit my first post! Frustrating! I'll try to contact an administrator to see what's up. Sorry for the frustration!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
